Awesome! It'll be a while till I get a new guitar, but this is next on my list.

I just watched it again, that's got tone to spare! I Wonder what is he playing it through?

The BFR Luke is simply magic...

That reviewer was really into it too, he sounded like an over excited kid in a toy store! :)

The one thing he didnt do was show off the clean tone, that wouldve been nice, the Luke isnt just some distortion machine like a lot of people keep telling me, it cleans up superbly. A little less gain on the neck pickup wouldve sounded ace in that vid too. Always my complaint with review vids is too much gain!

Thank you! I want to first know how a guitar sounds, not how processor, pedals and cab emulators, plus 5 amp gain stages sound. Frankly, I can barely tell one guitar from another through all the soup. Not saying this guy's demo, specifically, but in general. More clean and some natural tube amp OD would be great.

Listening again. Phil really did do a nice job of showcasing the Luke. His enthusiasm is contagious. You could tell he genuinely digs the guitar.

The BFR Luke really does have its own sound, huh.
